Semi-related question: how has the pandemic impacted your spending? Working from home means a lot less money spent on lunches, no eating out, and we generally haven't ordered takeout as much either. Also haven't taken a trip since this all started, which means our travel expenses have basically been zero.

Not a bad tip, but if the OP is concerned with where his money is going, this doesn't help in terms of monthly cashflow. Agreed it will cut down on total interest paid though.
